A searchable index of Australian APIs and catalogues, with publisher details, authentication notes, live-status checks, and connection recipes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The catalogue groups interfaces rather than reproducing the underlying datasets, and its entries cover federal, state, local, and research publishers. The homepage reports 371,629 reachable datasets through 12 live hubs, with 165 APIs carrying connection recipes. Its machine-readable surface includes separate catalogue, API, and change indexes, making the project legible to both human visitors and automated agents.
